Pre-owned 2012 FIAT 500 Lounge at Reedman-Toll Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram FIAT for Langhorne, PA

Every model in the 2012 FIAT 500 lineup is impressive, offers excellent style, and is truly a great value. Sitting at the top of the lineup is the Lounge model.  The FIAT 500 trim adds comfort and convenience, with the automatic transmission, softened ride and steering, added chrome, more amenities, and optional leather. Overall, the 500 retains its Italian sense of style that helped make it so popular in Europe.

Under the 500 Lounge's Hood

The FIAT 500 Lounges is powered by a 1.4-liter engine, just as the other models in the lineup do. The largest difference between the Lounge and the other models is that the Lounge comes standard with the automatic. The 500 Lounge also offers much looser and easier steering, another words this is a perfect vehicle for the city. The more relaxed steering makes the whole car feel a bit bigger, but the fixed glass roof in the Lounge has something to do with that, too. The electric power steering delivers good road feel and turns with appropriate effort. There's a sport mode for the automatic transmission that sharpens and delays the shifts nicely, without too much override. Steering effort and throttle mapping change when you toggle the Sport button on and off, and in 500s with an automatic, gear shifts are held longer and the speed of the shifts is reduced when Sport mode is active.

Design of FIAT 500 Lounge

Dimensionally between the ForTwo and the Mini Cooper, the 500 appears more substantial and less toy-like than the Smart; being nearly three feet longer than the ForTwo helps. Compared to the Mini Cooper, the 500 is six inches shorter, 2.2 inches narrower and 3.1 inches taller. FIAT's 1.4-liter MultiAir four-cylinder makes a modest 101 horsepower, but that's enough to move the sub-2,500-pound hatchback easily enough. The FIAT 500 Lounge is larger in the inside than it looks. Once in the supportive driver's seat, the 500 doesn't feel small from behind the wheel. The two front seats are plenty roomy. Visibility is unhindered and aided by the exterior mirrors that feature a blind-spot facet. The 500 will seat four passengers in a modern and artistic interior. Major controls come in black or an appealing eggshell trim, and a glossy dash panel matches the car's exterior paint. The radio, mounted at the top of the dash, is easy to use.
